 RE: Left Thumb Problems
Author: Jerry

My left thumb is double-jointed but I can hold it straight like my right. So I've never had a problem playing the clarinet. I actually have to "will" my thumb to pop it out. My brother is professional pianist and has two double-jointed thumbs. It's never bothered him. In fact I always thought it was an advantage for him--to be able to reach and play fourteen keys on the piano, when I can barely reach an octave (with my short, stubby fingers).
